Your sentence is confusing; a speedbump is designed to slow you down.

  Haha, you're right. I meant speed bump. As a German I'm used to chaining words together.

    It wasn't the chaining that was an issue: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_bump https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_bump . Perhaps "speed boost" would be a better alternative for your intended meaning.

      Interestingly "bump in speed" would be fine, but "speed bump", means the exact opposite.

  It isn’t in this context. “got a speed bump” vs “hit a speed bump”
