Yeah i'd try drilling a hole and getting a torx bit to bite in it. There wont be any load on it now the head has snapped off. Heat will soften the locktite, so heat it up then try and twist it out.

about to say you deserve your fate for using locktite, but i guess "it wasn't you" this time drill smaller, bolt extractor, heat, then start extracting good luck

Where is this from? Electric bike? To everyone saying heat it up: isn't there an oil seal behind that pulley? Made of rubber maybe

Fuck her right in her pussy! I removed the timing belt pulley and heated the crank around the bolt little by little with induction cause I couldn't get the flame inside the hole.
