While Sram’s X.0 offers all the bling and weight savings associated with a top of the range groupset, in reality the X.9 shifter and mech offers all the same functionality, with sharp snappy shifting, at considerably less cost. We are of the thinking that most people hit and break or damage their derailleurs before they truly wear them out, especially on the DH rigs, so we’d go for the X.9 over the more expensive X.0.
