Does that actually work to balance out demand enough? I know Paris tried to do the same thing but found that incentives weren't enough. Then again, that was the city government, so they may have been more constrained in terms of how large the incentives can be than you.

Incentives wouldn't have to solve the problem totally. As long as they made some users happy and redistributed some bikes, incentives would help reduce costs.
