This article concerns the uniform classification of infinite dimensional real topological vector spaces. We examine a recently isolated linearization procedure for uniform homeomorphisms of the form φ: X →Y, where X is a Banach space with non-trivial type and Y is any topological vector space. For such a uniform homeomorphism φ, we show that Y must be normable and have the same supremal type as X. That Y is normable generalizes theorems of Bessaga and Enflo. This aspect of the theory determines new examples of uniform non-equivalence. That supremal type is a uniform invariant for Banach spaces is essentially due to Ribe. Our linearization approach gives an interesting new proof of Ribe's result.
