Depends on the bus. There's local buses in towns that have zero space for bikes but there's the longer distance/intercity type buses run by companies like Sagales, Aviva and others that will happily take a complete bike (if there's space and that's probably at a premium in summer, especially if you're anywhere near a coast)

As for trains, the slower Media Distancia and Regionale will take complete bikes (that's how I got to the start of Transiberica the last time) but if you want to use the various fast trains you need to have bikes boxed/bagged/covered and they generally want them in the storage areas which differ per train.
This guy talks about Bromptons on the fast trains...
