Barrel diameter can greatly affect application and usability. A larger-diameter "high-volume" pump can fill a tube/tire fast, but require superhuman strength to go above 50 psi / 3.5 atm. Smaller-diameter pumps are easier, but as noted above can take eleventyzillion strokes to get to rated pressure. If you can, try before you buy. Or just get a Road Morph.
See post 5. Switchable between high volume and low volume.
