Making a bike for Zwift

Dear Zwifters,

Because when I ride outside, I always ride on a racetandem, I use only the racebike for zwift. I am started with a second hand bike. Now I want to build a new bike. Is it necessery to place a frontwheel or is there something like an holder on the market instead of using a front wheel? I’ve searched on the internet, but I can’t find something.

Something like this: https://www.backcountry.com/kreitler-forkstand

Or buy something like this and make your own:
MBP Alloy Quick Release Fork Mount Bike Block (9x100mm) Truck Bed/Rack/Storage https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07MDXZGMB/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_XKVB7Y4Q1FFS3YYQRZQC?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

But I bet if you go to your local bike shop you can find a trashed front wheel that they’d give you for free. It does need to support your weight though so don’t get a wheel missing too many spokes.

Thank you for your suggestions. I will look what’s available here in the Netherlands.
