I'd go for the 7, it got j bend spokes that make it easier to replace, very cheap too.
Make sure the tyres colour doesn't match, very important.

With the 5 being only £150 from bike-discount.de, I think I can afford to be a bit tarty :-) To me, it looks like it's only the drive side rear spokes on the Racing 7 which is J-bend anyway, the rest of the spokes are straight pull.
What will probably happen is that as soon as I get some 5LGs, they'll announce a Quattro LG which is what I'd really like if it existed.

Tempted to put Racing 5LG on my road bike, would be good for annoying people even more as it already has SRAM, Shimano, Campag, Pro, Profile, Look, Selle Italia, Vittoria and Revl parts, so one more different logo can't hurt. Obviously I'd need to get some Continental GP4000S2 eventually, as Vittoria tyres on Fulcrum rims is going to seem a bit too 'All Italian' :-)
