Can they be repaired if damaged?

[@coexistat]

They can be repaired similarly to how an inner tube on a tire is repaired. There is typically one patch that comes with the original cushion. Another option is to take it to your local bike shop and ask them to repair the hole as they are used to doing this for inner tubes - making friends with a local bike shop is a great idea. However, depending on the cushion they could also be under warranty and for this you can call Roho directly [phone] *Choose option for seating/roho from choices. They will ask for the serial number which is on the bottom of your cushion. If under warranty they will ship a new one to you directly and you do not need to go through service/repair with your provider.
