I usually don't get up to the recommended psi (100 for my current setup). Whenever I get up to about 80, the resistance to the pump feels so high that I'm always afraid one more push will burst the tube.

I've always wondered why this happens.

Maybe my nervousness is unfounded and I should just man up and give it hell.
