What Is CB Performance Parts?

Updated

CB Performance Parts is an online snowmobile parts and accessories store based in Chicago, Illinois, that also offers service work such as engine rebuilds. It is aimed at snowmobile owners who want to buy replacement parts, wear items, and upgrades online, and who may also need mechanical service. The site's catalog is organized by category and brand, and product listings show SKUs, MSRP, and current prices with "Add to Cart" or "Choose Options" actions.

What the site offers

The storefront combines two things in one place:

  • Parts and accessories sales — a browsable online catalog with product detail pages.
  • Service — the business states it can perform nearly any service on a snowmobile, with engine rebuilds called out specifically.

The homepage is built around "Shop By Category" and "Shop By Brand" menus, so you can navigate either by the type of part you need or by the manufacturer you prefer.

Product categories visible on the site

Based on the listings shown, the catalog covers several areas of snowmobile ownership:

Area Examples from listings
Traction and studs Woody's Digger backer plates, Grand Master single-ply studs, Roetin INS Hornet studs, Stud Boy Duece Bar
Skis and handling Camso ICE° Arrowhead, aluminum spindles
Electrical and starting Yuasa YTX20HL-BS high-performance battery, Noco Genius chargers and accessories
Small hardware Backer plates, nuts with nylon inserts, studs sold in custom quantities

Prices in the listings range from under a dollar for individual hardware pieces (for example, a Woody's round digger aluminum backer plate at $0.75) up to over a thousand dollars for larger items such as the Camso ICE° Arrowhead at $1,060.00. Many small parts are sold in custom quantities, which is why those listings use "Choose Options" instead of "Add to Cart."

Brands and products you'll find

The catalog mixes accessory brands with OEM-style replacement parts. Named brands in the listings include:

  • Woody's — traction products, backer plates, studs, and hardware
  • Camso — ski and traction components
  • Stud Boy — ski runners such as the 6" Ski-Doo Duece Bar
  • Yuasa — high-performance batteries
  • Noco — battery chargers and charging accessories
  • Roetin — studs
  • Dragon — accessories

The "Current Top Sellers" and "New Products" sections on the homepage give a quick view of what other riders are buying and what has recently been added.

Who it's for

This store fits you if you:

  • Own a snowmobile and do your own maintenance or repairs
  • Need specific wear items like studs, backer plates, or batteries
  • Prefer to shop by brand rather than by generic part type
  • Are in or near the Chicago, IL area and want a local shop that also sells online
  • Need service work, including engine rebuilds, rather than parts only

If you only need a single common part, the brand and category menus make it straightforward to narrow down. If you need work done on the machine itself, the service side of the business is the relevant part of the site.

How to use the site

  1. Start from Shop By Category if you know the type of part you need, or Shop By Brand if you know the manufacturer.
  2. Open a product's quick view or detail page to see the SKU, MSRP, and current price.
  3. For items sold in custom quantities, use Choose Options to set the quantity or configuration before adding to cart.
  4. For standard items, use Add to Cart directly.
  5. If you need installation or repair rather than a part, look into the service offering, which the business describes as covering nearly any snowmobile service, including engine rebuilds.

One practical note from the listings: several traction products are quantity-based (studs, backer plates, nuts), so check whether a price is per piece or per set before ordering. The "Custom Quantity" label on some Woody's studs is a signal that you'll set the count yourself.
