Everything I've read -- Sheldon Brown, Wikipedia, Wikibooks, other sites -- suggests that 3/32" is the standard internal width for nine-speed chains. I've seen some KMC chains advertised as being 11/128" internally. My current thinking is that KMC is "fudging" by 1/128 to save some weight. I could be wrong, but that's my current belief.
