The SRAM range has XX at the top, then XO, then X9 - sortof like XTR, XT and SLX with Shimano.

 

Most bikes are specc'd witha mix of the components. The most visible component is the rear derailler and this one is always from a top end gruppo. Then the crank. The rest gets skimped on.

 

In your case, the brakes are an upgrade from the rest that's X9 - unusual.
