Does anyone know what is a good cycling computer? All I need is good GPS/mapping features that doesn't connect to my phone what so ever. I don't need fitness functions at all (kbin.social)

Garmin etrex series. Fairly cheap, runs on AA batteries (great for travelling, i packed 3x2 batteries at some point and was good for 5 days of hiking without recharge). The screen is not the biggest, but always worked for me. No Bluetooth or Wifi. Bike mount is ok, not as good as the bile specific ones. You'll need to upload a map yourself via USB as well as tracks etc.

I would not recommend it for non tech savy users (devices with a companion app are easier to setup and load with tracks etc.). That's actually the reason I'm considering switching to a wahoo device
