Belcanto's on your EUB

Has anyone used Belcanto's on their EUB? I play mainly arco, and have an Azola Ultracoustic Bugbass on order. I could choose between Helicore Hybrids and Spirocore strings, and I chose the Helicore's, since I mainly play arco. I have Belcanto's on my Juzek, used mainly for orchestra, and I LOVE THEM! I have tried Obli's and Corelli 370 Forte TX on the upright, but the Belcanto's win out hands down. What has been your experience with Belcanto's on the EUB? Any other arco-friendly recommendations for the EUB?

I tried them.
Very nice, but since I'm a pizz player, I found them too slow. (at least the A & E)

Kolstein Varicors are also great. (for an orchestral string)
