+This Bear Frame Upgrade 2.1 is compatible with the '''Full Bear Frame Upgrade 2.0 MK3''' frame. If you do not know which frame you have please [[Bear FAQ#Section_Which_Full_Bear_frame_do_I_have|check our FAQ here]]. The 2.1 version needs extra hardware (screws, nuts, washers, dowel pin), check the [bill of materials](doc/bom.md) for more details. You can also order hardware upgrade kit from our [distributor websites](#where-can-i-get-an-official-kit).
If you have a Full Bear Frame Upgrade 2.0 MK2S or MK2.5 frame you can find compatible parts in the optional parts section below.
The new Y and Z axis are not compatible with any of the existing Prusa or Bear 2.0 parts. You have to update all parts from Bear 2.1.
+
+The original Prusa firmware is compatible with the Bear Upgrade 2.1 only if you use the Original Prusa extruder and X axis. If you use the Bear upgrade 2.1 frame with BearExxa, BearMera or Bondtech extruders you will need to use custom firmware.
