The winding length is 37" for the regular sets so they probably wouldn't work. You'd need the extra long.

Love me some R. Cocco's

I'm using a set of their nickel strings on my fretless at the moment, .028 .040 .060 .075 .095 .125 and they are the best strings I've put on this bass. Brightest nickels I've ever used too, and I love how they sound. I usually use stainless steel strings on my fretless, and I'm tempted to get another set of the same gauges but stainless steel. At the moment I can't think of anything that can compare to these that I've had on my fretless. Might have to convert all my basses to these strings.
Might have to give these a try, Bass Strings Online is blowing out a bunch of R. Cocco sets.
If Cocco:
-would sell singles
-would make a .135
I would have tried them before now.

These feel unlike any other roundwound I've tried. They aren't as mid heavy as some nickel plated roundwounds, and are almost as bright as stainless steels. Not lacking in mids like other stainless steel strings either, I find them to be very balanced. Haven't tried them on my fretted... but I think they will be a mainstay on my fretless. Probably going to try the stainless steels too.
