Static indoor bike with Zwift controllable resistance

My work is kitting out a new gym for employees, and I would like to have some kind of fit-adjustable indoor bike, usable by anyone, that has Zwift compatible controllable resistance. Does anyone have any recommendations or know of anything that works? I thought that the Cyclopes Phantom 5 fitted the bill, but it isn't as yet fully controllable by Zwift.

I'm not sure there is anything that fits it exactly at the moment. But I'm led to believe that the likes of 'smart bikes' will be a thing in the near future.0

The current Wattbikes link to Zwift etc I'm led to believe0

But I'm also led to believe they don't auto adjust resistance, nor have gears which is a big part of the experience.0

Wattbikes only transmit power via ANT+: they don't have Zwift controllable resistance and you need to use a lever to change resistance manually. The Cyclops Phantom definitely has the potential to work with Zwift. but Zwift developers have been saying Zwift controllability is in the pipeline for a very long time now.0

I wonder if the budget will stretch to one of these? http://magnum.tacx.com/ :-)0
