I'm 6'4" so reckon you would prob need the same size as me. Minimum 21" frame.
Suspension will only be of benifit to you if you go on pretty rocky trails, otherwise the weight will get you down.
If you go cross country and the occasional jaunt downhill, a hardtail bike will suit you better.
Don't live anywhere near you but would reccommend you buy a copy of "Mountain Biking UK".
Plenty of second hand bikes to suit all price ranges.
