If you just want to make them functional mechanical parts for most mass produced bikes are pretty easy to find for the most part. It's when you get into reproduction decals for less popular brands or models or mechanical items for the very low production models and one off hand built bikes that it can get tough. It's "usually" not impossible, but it can be expensive.
