you should have no trouble with vertical drop-outs--just add or subtract a gear tooth.

KMC also makes a 3/32 compatible half link for vertical drops. You can find the half link plus a new chain (like a z71 or a SRAM 57, 67), plus the required NEXUS vertical drop washers at any QBP vender such as Harris Cyclery or Airbomb

Don't understand this bit.
