Can I use an external download manager with Chrome?

Can I use for example axel as the default downloader for Google Chrome?

Install this extension:

It integrates with most popular download managers.

Yeah, it seemed removed from seb store as in other comment. It did work for me by the time the question was asked, and worked for the original poster of the question. There should be more similar extensions in web store though. – Meligy – 2013-09-13T23:38:09.503

So, delete this answer – None – 2013-11-25T09:52:57.743

Try the Downloaders extension. It can integrate with dozens of different download managers, and it actually still exists!
