Dawes Discovery 301 Mens Bike (2011)

I'm 6ft 2" and 16st and want to start commuting 4 miles to work, part road and part along a an old railway line now a walkway. I'm looking at a hybrid around £300.

Is this a good choice / price: http://www.winstanleysbikes.co.uk/product/29525/Dawes_Discovery_301_Mens_Bike_2011

By the way what size would I need - 22" frame?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Looks like a good bike for the money. Dont get the suspension forks option though, you dont need it and it will make pedalling harder work. i would think the 22 inch would be ok for you.

Yes I've read suspension forks are heavier and not necessary.
Thanks for your reply.

Purchased a specialized crosstrail basic model 2011 and got a very good deal. My commute is 4 mile and 3 of this is along old railway track a few hills also. I thought it would be a good starter to get me back into biking after the Puch Highriser.
