I'd disagree slightly in that there are plenty of 7s freehub systems around: all the way from 1989 to 1997 it populated bikes from the midrange downwards.
You can also get 9 and even 10 speed cassettes to fit, simply omit the smallest sprocket for an 8-from-9 or 9-from-10. Use the appropriate count shifter of course.
Note that SRAM 10 and 11 is not interchangeable, nor is much 9 and 10.
If anyone has tried it I'd be interested to hear.

Sram's big selling point is that sram parts from different groupsets are cross compatible. Find out which parts are interchangeable.
